Profile and security

#Open your profile

Click your initials at the top right and choose View Profile or Edit Profile — both open the same page. It shows your name, position and organisation, when you became a member, and your My Projects. If you have saved datasets they are listed too. The Account Details panel on the right shows your email, organisation, position, role and any groups you belong to.

#Edit your details

In the Edit Profile card you can change your First name, Last name and Email. Choose Save Changes. Your organisation, position and avatar can't be edited here.

#Change your password

In the Change Password card, enter your Current password, then your New password (at least 8 characters) and Confirm new password, and choose Change Password. Use a password you don't use anywhere else.

#Connected accounts

Under Connected accounts you can sign in with Google as well as, or instead of, your password. Choose Connect next to Google and pick your Google account; from then on Continue with Google on the sign-in page opens your account. Disconnect removes it. If Google is your only way to sign in, set a password first (sign out and use Forgot password?), so you can't lock yourself out.

Orion staff accounts are never connected automatically: staff sign in with their password once and connect Google here.

#Forgot your password?

You can reset it without signing in:

1. On the sign-in page choose Forgot password?.
2. Enter your email address or username. If it matches an account we email a reset link to the address on file. The email also tells you your username.
3. Open the link within 2 hours, enter a new password and choose Save and sign in. You are signed straight in.

Just need to get in? Choose Email me a sign-in link instead on the sign-in page: one click in the email signs you in without a password.

See Create an account and sign in for the sign-in steps.

#OrionAI settings

Under OrionAI on your profile you can:

• turn on the daily email with your daily brief and dashboard alerts (off by default);
• create and revoke connection keys for using OrionAI from other AI assistants. See Use OrionAI from other AI assistants.

#Email settings

Under Email on your profile, the Product tips and updates switch controls the short emails we send while you get started, the follow-ups after you download a dataset, and the occasional note about what's new. The Weekly data emails switch controls OrionGIS Data Weekly: one email a week about open data, with a different focus each week (the month in numbers, a theme, imagery to map, datasets picked from what you download, map, save, view and follow), shown as dataset cards with thumbnails. It never shows you the same dataset twice, and if you stop opening it, it slows to monthly and then stops on its own. Every one of these emails also has an Unsubscribe link that works in one click, without signing in. Sign-in links and password resets always reach you.

#Sign out

Choose Sign Out in the profile menu, or on your profile page. You stay signed in on a browser for up to 30 days unless you sign out. On a shared computer, sign out when you finish.

#Keeping your account safe

• Never share your password. Data collectors in the field should use app users, not your login — see Collect data in the field.
• If you think someone else has your password, change it straight away and tell the platform team using Contact Admin in the sidebar.
